HDD shows in Device manager, I/O Error,Only showing 3GB Capacity
Recently completed my PC Build.
Everything is fine except my HDD. It is a Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003 1TB 7200
It shows up in the device manager and states it is working correctly.
However it does not show up in Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers.
I attempted to initialize what i'm assuming is my HDD however 2 problems.
Firstly, It only shows the disk as 3GB.
Secondly I can't do it as it pops up with an I/O Error.
So, as you can imagine i can't write anything, thus making my gaming computer rely on a 100gb SSD for now..
Weirdly, it does not even show up on my BIOS. I have changed around the SATA ports around to see whether it is the MOBO and even the cables.
Does anyone have a fix or is my HDD probably faulty?
